Do you know how to protect yourself from diseases?  Inoculation is great for protecting against many diseases including small pox.

Self inoculating is an important part of staying healthy. You can self inoculate in hurry by preferating a small portion of skin and putting an infected substance onto the area. The next day you will know if you have done this successfully if the inoculated site is infected.

As most people know there are three ways to get off a British prison ship riddled with disease and danger.#1 – Fight with the British, there are less deaths on the battle field than in British ships , #2 – the war ends and they release the prisoners, #3- break out. Either way you need to be in good health condition to survive your stay.

This can keep you healthy to help you endure your stay in a war ship until you can get out.

 A soldier named Sam has only been eating hardtack for four days, he said. “It tastes like nothing, it’s hard and has little nutrition but it’s better than nothing.”

Now are you ready to make your own hardtack. You may never know when the Continental army will come marching through:

You will need Flour, Bowl, a Round Object, a Fork, and an Oven.

1) Add enough water 1 cup of flour to make it soft, but not sticky, dough.

 2) Punch and work the dough for about ten minutes, until the dough is elastic in texture.

3) Roll the dough on a tray till the dough is about 1/2 – inch thick.

4) Use your circle shaped object to cut the dough into biscuits. Prick each one with a fork.

5) Finally bake over a high, hot flame for about 7 minutes. Then let the flame lower a bit and let cook for another 7 to 10 minutes. The biscuits should be hard, like a rock.

Heroes America needs, and protectors willing to risk the peril of battle, if she is to prevail in her secession from Britain. Enlist in infantry, or serve in the navy, but do as is your right and serve this glorious nation. Soldiers will be provided with blue Continental uniform and provisions upon enlistment. Have soldiers military experience, then they may be appointed officers if they so prove themselves worthy. Also, the army searches for drummer boys for its regiments and vanguards; boys of 14 and over may so apply for this position.

After we so succeed in this endeavor, all soldiers will be duly awarded as is their right:

$2o in commissary notes [dollars 20 extra for trained hands in sailing]. In addition, soldiers may receive each 3 acres of land in the newly-born country.

Women who wish to join as army cooks and nurses or in forging artillery, shall be welcomed freely, but are implored to leave children in the house if they so choose.

To enlist, seek a local commissary officer.

George Washington mingled with General Cornwallis, a now retired British officer and Colonial administrator. They were sharing battle techniques and apologizing for the war. They each received a copy of the Declaration of Independence as a reminder of a triumphant war.

            British General William Howe stated “We are relieved to be finished with this horrifying war. It cost many lives, and a lot of money. The British and Americans have made peace,and the British will be departing tomorrow.”

            George Washington announced his retirement from the war to the public before the party began. Citizens of all colonies were shocked that George did not try and take position of King. He simply said his job was done and he was retiring.  

             The party ended at about 12pm the Americans and British have made peace. The war has finally ended and the dead and heros are remembered.
